Ji Weixi woke up with a slight headache when she got up the next morning .
Pressing on her throbbing temples, she sat up in bed . It was still a cloudy day, and it was drizzling outside .
She rubbed her sleepy eyes, and was struck by a critical hit of beauty when she looked up .
Li Shaoling was putting on a necktie in front of the long mirror . There was a cold frown on his brow, while his fingers kept making a mess of the knots . He certainly looked not in the mood, eventually impatiently pulling the tie and hanging it over his neck .
Suddenly, he saw that the woman was looking at himself from the mirror .
“Come . ” He gestured .
Ji Weixi, yet to wake up from his dream tamely pushed off her blanket and got there .
He handily gathered her into his arms . “Help me with my tie . ”
As if it was natural, Ji Weixi stood on her toes and started to knot his necktie . He was so tall that she had to stand on his shoes .
Afraid of her falling over, he held her waist with both hands as if they were a long-married couple .
She was still drowsy and would yawn from time to time, causing her eyes to become watery and crystalline .
Still, Ji Weixi deftly did the tie . She looked up into his bottomless gaze, and she finally reacted after seconds, promptly pus.h.i.+ng him away .
“How did you get in here!?” She esclaimed coldly and angrily .
She had clearly locked the door!
Li Shaoling was at once helpless and exasperated .
Her slow reaction was so cute .
“Did you think a door could stop me?”
Ji Weixi was speechless .
However, Li Shaoling's sharp gaze narrowed dangerously . “You're quite good with a tie . Who did you help before?”
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
Incidentally, he tends to be easily angered in the morning, and that very thought exploded his rage meter .
The man was probably envy incarnate in his last life .
“I helped a model before . ” Ji Weixi said, yawning .
A model?!
A model!
Li Shaoling caught her nape and inched closer, gritting his teeth with every word, “A human model?!”
Ji Weixi was so speechless she could not say anything against him . “You're imagining things . It's a mannequin . ”
Li Shaoling calmed, and tenderly pinched the tip of her nose . “You are only allowed to do my tie . ”
It was a pinch that left Ji Weixi's nose itching .
“Achoo—”
She lowered her head and sneezed—five times .
Li Shaoling's face turned frighteningly dark . “Are you sensitive to me?”
Ji Weixi drew a blank .
'Why not write a novel if you're so imaginative?'
Ji Weixi sneezed again and quickly took a tissue to wipe her snivel . “I might have gotten a cold yesterday,” she said nasally .
Again, Li Shaoling's expression turned gentle and gave her a firm hug .
“You're strangling me!” Breathless and irritated, Ji Weixi stomped his foot .
“I was afraid you're feeling cold,” he said coldly . “You really don't know what's good for you!”
'You need to be taught a lesson!'
Ji Weixi freed herself from his hug . “I'll look around the house for some cold medicine . ”
Li Shaoling caught her hand .
It felt warm, almost scalding .
“Skip work today . ”
Ji Weixi shook her head . “No can do . Human resource will deduct my salary . ”
“Who dares?” There was killing intent in Li Shaoling's eyes, and his words allowed no argument . “You get paid leave today . ”
Was this the life of the boss's woman?
How fickle .
Ji Weixi herself would like to enjoy life as a boss's wife too, having no care for anything as she stayed home, counting money .
Still, she was not envious, because she did not strongly desire that life .
Her pa.s.sion was designing and the professional scene .
“Thank you for your kindness, President Li, but I'm going to work . ” Ji Weixi gave a businesslike smile and refused .
Li Shaoling stayed silent, and his face was turning cold again .
He was not angry that she did not do as he wanted, but because she was still trying too hard even when she was ill .
He felt that he wasn't protecting her as a man .
In fact, he was angry at himself .
Ji Weixi chuckled when she found her little one coming out of his room clumsily after changing .
He was wearing a b.u.t.ter green short sleeve s.h.i.+rt and a red Ultraman short pants .
He even wore his shoes wrong .
It was too… bombastic a color match .
Red and green…
Still, it was not too hard on the eyes . His little face that resembled Li Shaoling's so remarkably somehow made an unusual match with his clothing, essentially adapting it as his own style .
“Mommy, why are you laughing?” The little one blinked blankly .
Ji Weixi smiled dazzlingly . “Do you think your clothes look nice, son?”
“Yeah!” He stomped the floor indignantly . “Bad Mommy, laughing at me!”
Li Shaoling sneered . “So ugly . How did I get such a cla.s.sless son?”
The little one sneered in return . “How did I get such an old man without standards? A fas.h.i.+onable boy like me can be a child model!”
Old… old man??
“You want to die, don't you?” Li Shaoling abruptly yelled .
Him, old?
Was he? He's not even thirty, okay?
As Li Shaoling was about to hit the little one, Ji Weixi quickly s.h.i.+elded the boy in his arms .
Li Shaoling had an ugly, frustrated look on his face, and his eyes were full of grievances .
Like… a wounded little puppy .
Ji Weixi's heart softened for no reason, her motherly instincts surging…
“How could you talk like that, son?” She scolded . “He's your Daddy . There's no you without him . You must respect him, and don't make him angry, alright?”
The little one nodded obediently . “Okay . Got it, Mommy . ”
Then, he turned to Li Shaoling and smiled . “Daddy, I'm sorry . ”
Li Shaoling, cold-faced, snorted and ignored him .
Tsundere .
In fact, flowers were blossoming in his heart .
Finally, she was taking his side .
In the company .
When Ji Weixi was about to leave for her own floor, Li Shaoling caught her, his handsome face inching closer .
Ji Weixi's face went red, and she carefully looked around . “What are you doing, President Li?”
“Goodbye kiss . ”
The little one carefully said, “Daddy… your office is so close to Mommy's but you still want a goodbye kiss… you're really clingy . ”
Li Shaoling threw him a glare and the little one shrank .
However, Ji Weixi agreed with her son . “Please get back to work, President Li . I'm busy too . ”
Catching her off guard for a moment, he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek .
“Li—” Ji Weixi's cheek grew hot, and when she was about to say something, the man had left nonchalantly .
The lingering warmth did not fate, so Ji Weixi had to enter her office with a red face .
Tian Miaomiao came to her, fl.u.s.tered . “Xixi, we lost one of the drafts . ”
Ji Weixi frowned . “How? Where did it go?”
“I don't know!” Tian Miaomiao shook her head, her hands tangled . “What… what should we do? Qiao Ai just informed me that her draft was gone, but I did pa.s.s all the drafts you gave me to the designers…”
Tian Miaomiao was frightened the more she thought about it . “Screw me, what should I do? Losing drafts is no small matter! It's going to be a lawsuit if someone picks it up and leaks it! What should we do, Xixi!!??”
